Hello everyone! I hope you've all had a marvelous few days. Me? Not so much. I'm doing my best, but I'm covered in bruises and there are many more that have yet to surface. I can feel them. Not fun. 😦 While trying to pack and get my shit together (Waste Management must hate me … Continue reading 100% Sore

Time Is A Fickle Thing

2015-10-11 Miss Poison Life, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing Israel, Life, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing

This weekend has blown by. I've done so much in the last few days that I am struggling to move. The only thing that doesn't hurt is my hair. 😦 My new mattress was delivered earlier in the evening. The irony that I'll only get to sleep on it for the next three weeks is … Continue reading Time Is A Fickle Thing

2015-10-092015-10-09 Miss Poison Life, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing Emotions, Family, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Siblings, Tears, Writing

What profound, intelligent things can I say today? I won't give myself that much credit as my thoughts are scattered at the moment, but hey, it has been known to happen. 😉 On occasion, I wish people wouldn't give me such rich material and expect me not to write about it (That's okay, the status … Continue reading Friday Feelings

2015-10-08 Miss Poison Honesty, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing Honesty, Marriage, Men, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Things That Nauseate Me, Women, Writing

This was the question I posed to one of my best friends the other morning when a friend said something stupid and I responded. If you make something public, don't expect intelligent people not to make a statement. It's common sense. There's a lot you can say to and in front of me. I will … Continue reading “Am I Mean?”

Another night of barely present sleep has me sitting here stressed. I should be boxing things up in my bathroom or going through my closet, but it's cold, even with the heat on, the wind is insane, and I think I have to give myself a break today. From the neck down, everything hurts. If … Continue reading It’s Normal And It’s Okay

Another Sleepless Night

2015-10-012015-10-01 Miss Poison Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing Cat and Kitten, Insomnia, Musings, October, Stormy Weather, Strength, Survival, Writing

No, I haven't been to bed yet. Yes, I'm aware it's nearly 8:00 a.m. EDT. No, I don't normally sleep during the day, but the Full Moon leading into the time change screws with me badly. On the plus side, I was pretty productive overnight and this needs to continue until next month. I can … Continue reading Another Sleepless Night

Of late, I've noticed people feel incredibly safe behind their computer-based bubbles, but I often wonder how real people are being. Sometimes, stories don't add up (You can't bullshit me, I have common sense.), and other times, it takes about two seconds for someone to get offended by the simplest thing. What is that you … Continue reading There’s A Difference

Rest Alludes Me

All I want to do is SLEEP. For God's sake, it's Saturday night and I am BEAT. It's meant to be a 'day of rest'. But really, why should my body obey unwritten laws?! Today I completed two writing assignments, decided on a mountain of paperwork for tomorrow when I inevitably won't be able to … Continue reading Rest Alludes Me

I'm starting this the night before (Friday @ 8:30 PM EDT) because I don't know how much writing I'll be able to do tomorrow, mostly because migraines and lack of sleep have plagued my existence the majority of this week. Tomorrow is Case Study #2's birthday. I gave him three potential options for a really … Continue reading Misery Wants Company; But Misery Can Kiss My Ass

The Two Most Engaging Powers…

I disagree, but that's a conversation for another day. Preferably when I've had solid sleep, am migraine-free, and haven't walked for two miles in absolute confusion staring at my own handwriting. Also, after hours of wondering why the migraine had yet to subside, I came upstairs and found my migraine medicine on my bed. Next … Continue reading The Two Most Engaging Powers…
